Scottish Elises

I was heading northbound on way home from Edinburgh in the family wagon and it flashed by but looked superb.

Me again waving at you on the bike Balgillo Road coming back from a work meeting hope you are well Ally.

Had my car out once in July and once in Aug so far, getting a bit ridiculous

Believe I spotted the "lesser spotted Lotus" yesterday on Balgillo Rd :wave :) - 250 looked great in the sunshine 8) Any plans to take the hard top off for the summer? :lol: that was cool :D cant help but grin when I see another lotus :-D What was funny about that Ally, literally 10 seconds before ...

All good here thanks Scott and you? Doing pretty well thanks Ross, I have been a bit quite on the forum recently for sure but working away, got a large public sector contract for our Neptune water safety product and a Scottish Enterprise Smart award to develop it further. Its a bit of diversificati...

So Scott - when am I gonna spot you? :damnfunny :lol: the "lesser spotted" lotus :lol: Good to hear from you Ross, hope you are well ! In 490 days of ownership I have done 1260 miles, 500 of which have been home from parks, back for run in service and back again for first service :oops: Love owning...

That was me waving at you from the Bike Ally Was cycling back from a work meeting with a laptop on my back up the Victoria Road hill.

Good to see you out and about

I was waiting at the traffic lights heading in ferry direction at the end of Green Dykes when the blue light van went through the red traffic lights. Then I spotted you just in front of the van out the corner of my eye , clearly they were not on your tail :lol: but exciting none the less. Could have...

Just thinking out loud here, the Cup has a Lithium lightweight sport battery thing and I was warned by Laura not to jump start in the normal way you would with a standard car battery as it will damage the battery. She took a fair bit of time explaining how to take the front panel off, attach a batte...

Top tip. For extra low car just roll a wheel onto a wood block or thick stone to enable the jack to roll under [emoji1303]

Did this for my S1 for years [emoji41]

awesome. Thx.

Got to say, Ronnie is a top bloke. Really knows his stuff and really helped me out. In addition he is going to do a puncture repair and drop of the old tyre next time he is passing. Also seems to be able to get stock from all over the place. The skirts on the cup make jacking up a completely flat ty...

thanks Ross

Thanks Jim / Campbell, all super useful info

Thanks for the link Ian, that is really useful. I have Tyreweld and an air compressor in the car. Never used Tyreweld , was not sure how to be honest. If I was in the middle of no where that would have been the first option I think. Assuming this is the stuff if I need more ? https://tinyurl.com/4dc...

Thanks for the post Ally :) really appreciate the response. Will take note of Hectyre for future reference. Wee bit out of my depth fixing Lotus stuff so learning as I go here. Forum is invaluable in these moments :thumbsup Still waiting for a date/time from Ronnie but a 24h turn around is pretty go...

So I have managed 699 miles on a rear tyre before needing a replacement

Guess I can try and puncture repair it and have it ready as a spare for swapping out in future.
